On this, the 25-year-old stated, “he’s really supportive of anything I do.” 

Describing his father’s condition, the young actor further asserted, “If I wanted to be a clown or do something bizarre, as long as I worked my bu** off, remained dedicated to it, and made a living for myself, that’s all that matters”. He then expressed his heartfelt gratitude, “He’s there to give me advice and help push me along the way, as any father would.”

Though juggling between bodybuilding and acting is a tough grind, the Gunner actor has handled both realms with absolute finesse. Interestingly, Baena enjoys the perks of bodybuilding during the shoots of his films, thus making the process of handling two professions at the same time easy.
